The Omni

Talk about a sleeper...along with the "PITB" before it, this is probably the last time the Grateful Dead really went the distance in terms of jamming.

Alpine Valley

Searing work from Brent in a typically strong 1989 version. Surprised this was represented from a legendary show.

Rockin' version from the summer of '89.

Creepy crawly version with lots of different themes and moods just like all good Spaces.

Good Lovin'
May 26, 1995
Memorial Stadium

Wanted to bring more attention to this one; regardless of the year or era, this is one of Bob's very best "Good Lovin'"'s, from the last truly great show they ever played.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 3, 1982
The Scope

One of the best ever. Should be in the 40-50+ votes bracket. The transition is one of the most creative and intense I can think of.
Eyes Of The World
April 3, 1982
The Scope

Never heard an "Eyes" like this before. Like a totally different arrangement. And it's gorgeous.
Bertha
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

Absolutely wild version that never lets up at any point. The mid-jam is indeed ferocious.
Sugaree
Dec. 29, 1977
Winterland Arena

The most intense, volcanic peak of any "Sugaree" known to man. Inhuman.
